Sometimes you have to trust your heart to find out what home really means.

Duncan
McAllister is marrying Elaina Tripoli tomorrow. Except--he's missing.
Jordan, Noah, Griffin, Maggie, and Miles arrive in Greece for the
festivities to find frantic messages from both the bride and groom. Noah
and Griffin set off to find Duncan while Jordan, Maggie, and Miles try
to salvage what should be a day of celebration before the wedding.

But
the Americans have their own baggage. Noah's got a surprise planned for
Jordan that has to go perfectly. Griffin's keeping life-changing news
from Maggie. And Miles--well, he wasn't looking for love on this trip
until a Greek sous chef named Alex rocks his world.

The race is
on for Duncan to make it back to Elaina before she decides not to take
him back at all. For Noah to make sure his monumental plan goes off
without a hitch. For Griffin to tell Maggie the truth without losing
her. For Miles to admit that letting himself fall in love is worth the
risk.

Happily Ever After waits at the finish line…if the four couples can make it on time.

I loved the first two books in AJ Pine’s If Only... series, If Only and What If. When I heard there was going to be another book in the series, I was ecstatic. I wanted to know what would happen to these couples I loved so much, plus I’d hoped for a story that involved Miles from the second book. I Do is a beautiful, fitting end to the series, and made me fall for these characters even more.

When I heard I Do was told from multiple points of view, I thought it would get confusing, but it was easy to keep up. Pine took something that could have been a mess and did a brilliant job with it. All the characters had such distinctive stories and personalities, I never got lost. It was actually the perfect way to tell the story, because we got to know the characters so well in the first two books, it was nice to be back inside their heads and see things from each perspective.

One of the things I loved most about this book (and Pine’s other books) was that things weren’t easy for the characters. In If Only and What If, we got to see Noah and Jordan, Griffin and Maggie, and Duncan and Elaina get their happily ever afters, but with I Do we see what comes after the happily ever after. Each couple was madly in love, but they still had struggles and fights and misunderstandings. It was wonderfully realistic, and it made me continue to root for them the way I did in the previous books. I absolutely loved Miles’s story; I adored him in What If, so to get him as a main character instead of a side character was great, and his story was beautiful (and sexy!).

Reading I Do was like being reunited with old friends. It was a perfect ending to a series I’ve thoroughly enjoyed. It was laugh-out-loud funny, romantic, sweet, and full of feels. Noah, Jordan, Griffin, Maggie, Duncan, Elaina, Miles, and Alex will stick with me for a long time to come.

AJ Pine writes stories to break readers' hearts, but don't worry--she'll mend them with a happily ever after. As an English teacher and librarian, AJ has always surrounded herself with books. All her favorites have one big commonality--romance. Naturally, the books she writes have the same. When she's not writing, she's of course reading. Then there's online shopping (everything from groceries to shoes). And a tiny bit of TV where she nourishes her undying love of vampires and superheroes. You'll also find her hanging with her family in the Chicago 'burbs.

Have you read any of the books in the If Only... series? What did you think? If you haven't read them, do you plan to? If you've read I Do, what did you think of this final installment?
